Humans don't always behave as you expect them to, sometimes their responses and actions are completely irrational u we don't always make perfect decisions u but that's the model we base everything on. But why? If we design our systems, our government, all the products and services we use for perfect, rational people, is it any wonder why they aren't working? With ever increasing globalisation and technological innovation, we've lost our sense of purpose, of community, of perspective. Government, business, healthcare, our jobs, the food we eat, the way we raise and educate our children, the way we relate to the natural world around us, it's all become too big, too industrialised and impersonal. Inhuman. Steve Hilton, visiting scholar and lecturer at Stanford University and former senior adviser to Prime Minister David Cameron, shows us that it doesn't have to be this way, that we have a choice, and we can choose differently. He offers the latest research and compelling stories and case studies from all over the world, across industry, politics, education, design and philanthropy, to show us what can happen when we make our world more human. Hilton believes that change is possible and necessary: that we can create a more local, more accountable, more human way of living that will make us more productive, more fulfilled and ultimately happier.
